As a British brand
We are extremely proud to have been creating beautiful body care and home fragrance for the last 20 years.
We attribute our success to our talented team, our luxurious products plus brilliant customer relationships. We feel that at this point in time the most important journey we can take is that to sustainability. Due to the alarming environmental state of our planet, we feel we all must do our bit – both as individuals and organisations.
Offset CO2 by protecting the rainforest when you shop online
As part of our sustainability programme on Earth day 2021, we joined forces with One Tribe, a digital platform enabling us to help protect our planet. For each online order, we’ll make a donation to protect 100 m2 of rainforest, in turn reducing our carbon footprint and helping to fight the climate crisis.
“Rainforests are the lungs of our planet, the natural solution to climate change that remove and store CO2 from our atmosphere.”
We’re thrilled to be working with a certified B corporation, One Tribe who protect Amazonian rainforests, biodiverse habitats, indigenous communities and endangered species by supporting rainforest protection projects.
“We are on a path to ensure we become as environmentally sustainable as quickly as we can, as innovative new materials emerge.”

Packaging
We have been horrified to understand the level of plastic in our oceans and the fact that only a small percentage currently gets recycled. Therefore, high on our agenda is packaging, particularly in terms of plastic.
Research
- Keep up-to-date with technological and industry advances.
- Identify and harness innovation such as Breakdown Plastic (BDP™) to reduce our impact on the environment.
- Explore current and upcoming plastic alternatives.
Reduce
- Move away from unnecessary packaging, particularly in terms of gift sets.
- Seek and trial alternatives to plastic packaging, including environmentally friendly material such as aluminium and glass.
- Take an agile approach to packaging as innovative solutions come to market.
Recycle
- Ensure our head office and warehouse continue best practices with recycling and waste management.
- Shift all packaging to commonly recycled materials e.g. PET
- Improve packaging & recycling information to help consumers responsibly dispose of products after use.
- Increase the amount of recycled content used in our packaging.
Biofil Packaging
Did you know we use Biofil in our website orders?
Made using corn starch it’s non-toxic and dissolves in water or can be composted.
“We will be transparent about how our packaging can be recycled, so please follow us on social media to be kept regularly informed of our sustainability journey.”
Recycling
We truly believe recycling is the way forward and vital if we all want to protect our planet for future generations. Unfortunately, less items are generally recycled from bathrooms than our kitchens and we’d hope to encourage everyone to recycle as much as possible using local recycling programmes.
You’ll find the majority of our product packaging can be commonly recycled including glass bottles, plastic bottles, cardboard boxes and aluminium tubes. However, for those items which are not commonly recycled at this time (e.g. trigger sprays) there are various schemes which recycle almost anything, such as Terracycle.
TerraCycle is Eliminating the Idea of Waste® by recycling the “non-recyclable.” From coffee capsules, pens or plastic gloves, TerraCycle can collect and recycle almost any form of waste. They partner with individuals, as well as major companies, retailers, manufacturers, municipalities, and small businesses all over the world. Visit the Terracycle website for more information.
